Description
Hi,
I have a VM that duplicates the Native Host I'm running; Fedora Core 36 (x86_64, Rawhide.
The only difference is that the VM has the "latest" kernel. My objective was to test that VB would support the new kernel.
I was playing with VB under VB and noticed several problems which make me ask if this config is supported.
1) The VM is x86_64 but NO x86_64 systems were listed in the first screen where the system name and system type are listed.
2) The create VM UI complained that acceleration is not supported but I didn't see any way to disable it.
3) The first level VM has only 2G allocated and the second level VM would only allow 2GB to be selected. I tried setting something else but the UI didn't want to forget my first selection.
4) The type of networking would only offer NATed networks.
Thanks,
Obiewan...
Linux kernel 5.14 is supported by VirtualBox test builds 6.1.27r146191 and newer.
For the rest of your issues, I'd suggest to go to the VirtualBox Forums, because they're better suited for conversations.
